What would the admission's team think of someone (applying for natsci)that sent in a personal statement with a couple of minor grammatical errors? ive been stressing about this a bit. in the final few moments while editing i accidentally left in a couple of grammatical mistakes and i asked my counselor to let me proofread it one last time but he said no and so we sent it in. after sending it in i read it one more time and saw a missing "a" and a false capital letter. is it worth it to email my college and notify them of the error and how it should actually be? this may sound extremely stupid to anyone reading this.
Also, is 3A*'s at A-level still autopool for natsci?

Don't worry about it, it won't make a material difference. I don't think the compulsory pooling requirements have been announced but I'm not aware that they have changed. Don't worry about these either, they're really not as important as TSR thinks.
